Chapter 69 - Name

"How about...Katsuo. It means victory and hero. Let this child be the victory and hero of your new life."

Kana instantly began sobbing with a smile on her face.

"Yuki, Your to kind and I just hope one day you can enjoy moments like this. Katsuo is perfect."

After awhile of talking to Kana and fawning over the new baby I go check on Ash. I peek in to see him fast asleep and silently close the door.

(Thats good, He was able to sleep through this all.)

As I turn around I instantly bump into someones hard chest.

"Ow..."

I rub my now hurting nose and look up to see Kirito silently smirking at me.

"Oh it's you. Your so silent I didn't know you were right behind me."

Kirito chuckles and grabs ahold of my hand.

"Let's go somewhere, just you and me."

I blush and agree right away.

"Sure, where do you have in mind?"

(It's been a while since we have had alone time. I can really use this to relax.)

Kirito tightens his grip a little.

"It's a surprise."

I nod and just follow him. After about 10 minutes of walking in the forest he covers my eyes and stands behind me as we walk a little further . I could hear water rushing and various pleasant smells rush through my nose. I couldn't help but smile ear to ear and giggle.

"Kirito, how much longer?"

He chuckles and kisses my cheek as we come to a halt.

"Alright, we're here."

He moves his hands and I open my eyes to see a beautiful sight. A pretty big waterfall that was surrounded by beautiful plants and trees with a medium small size lake the water fall fell into. The little lake was surrounded by a few big cherry blossom trees that we're in full bloom with petals falling here and their from the small wind breeze.

"Kirito, this is beautiful!"

He hugs me from behind and kisses my cheek.

"Not as beautiful as you, but yes it's really pretty. I thought it would be nice to have a swim and a picnic later if you feel up to it."

I instantly nod.

"Yes, that would be amazing! Maybe after we all have breakfast and our talk we can sneak away for lunch a little while later."

Kirito turns me around and I could see something was bothering him by the way he looked into my eyes. My heart skips a few beats as I look at his handsome face. I instantly became entranced with him. I try to snap out of it but he too was inching closer. Soon we kiss. It was a sweet and loving kiss but this one felt sweeter then our others and more passionate. He pulls my body closer to his and cups my cheek with his hand.

(Kirito seems needy today, I wonder what he's been thinking about.)

I pull away a little and lay my head against his chest hugging him. I listen to his heart which was beating pretty fast. I could tell he was getting...excited. I giggle and pull away.

"Ok, lets go back for now, we don't want to give away our secret spot now do we?"

Kirito smiles at me and nods.

"Yeah lets head back then."

After getting back home, the fresh smell of baking food filled the air and the soft cries of a newborn echo from Kana's room. Kirito looks at me confused and I giggle.

"Kana had her baby this morning, I'll go check on them."

I casually open the door to Kana's room and see Kana nursing the fussy baby boy. She looks up at me and smiles warmly.

"Yuki, I just ate so don't worry about me. Katsuo is hungry but im still learning to breast feed."

I giggle and go to help her.

"Do you mind if I help you?"

Kana instantly blushes, I could tell she was a bit embarrassed.

"It's ok Kana, I used to help at an orphanage when I was younger and I seen wet nurses do it all the time, It's completely natural and normal. Let me teach you?"

Kana thought for a second before nodding.

"Ok so, Hold him like this, kinda like a football and support his head like this. Oh and make sure you don't lean in or cover his nose. hold him up with your arms instead of leaning in, There are many positions you can breastfeed in. One way is this but you can also lay down and have him lay next to you to do it. I'll get some books and stuff to show you, Ok?"

Kana warmly smiles at me as she listens to my directions. soon Katsuo falls asleep after filling his little belly and being burped.

"Thank you Yuki...I truly appreciate this. When you become a mom I know you will be wonderful at it."

I giggle and stand up.

"Thank you, and no problem. If you need anymore help im here for you, take a rest you will need it."

Kana nods and I take my leave. I go towards the living room to find everyone talking amongst themselves. I take a seat next to Kirito who instantly puts his arm around my shoulders once I sit down.

"How are they doing?"

I sigh and lean back with him.

"The baby is perfect, Kana is exhausted so im going to get some books and papers to help her learn more about being a mother so she won't have to work so hard figuring it out by herself."

Kirito chuckles.

"That's sweet of you, Do you ever want to be a mother? you seem to know a lot about this stuff."

I sigh and thought about it for a second before answering.

"A part of me does, But another part of me doesn't because of the way this world is right now. I don't know if it would be right to raise a child amongst this hellish world."

Kirito pinches my cheek before speaking.

"Well then...If you want a child but you fear that it'll be to dangerous to have one. Then let's not make the world a better place so that we can have a child later."

Stunned by his kind words and a little bit flustered at the last part of his sentence I blush, I couldn't help but giggle thinking about it.

(This man...He has so much wisdom and he's so strong in every way. I'm so grateful for his moving words just now.)

"Your right Kirito, lets continue to try to make this world a different place for you and me. That way if we can do this we won't have to fear as much about the future not only because we changed the world but also so we can stop this never ending cycle of unneeded death and torture. I want everyone to experience the true meaning of life. Not just for us but literally for everyone."
